Bjarke and his wife have built with their own hands a little piece of paradise 20km away from Bergen. The appartment where we stayed was cozy, modern, spacious and very comfortable. The views of the fjord were amazing. We only regret not staying there for longer :).

My wife and I visited Norway for the first time in May, and we were looking for a quite accommodation near Bergen, away from the husle and bustle of the city, and we found the perfect place in this apartment. It is 30 minutes from the city, in a very quiet and secluded area, overlooking the lagoon of Bergen.The retreat area is amazing, well kept. The apartment is brand new, made of very high quality material, with excellent heating, great furniture, and a very nice kitchen. The hosts even provided us with food for breakfast. They even provide a large TV with an Apple TV and other peripherals.The views from the place is amazing, you have the chance to use the sauna too, which is located right next to the sea. The hosts are simply amazing, they exceptionally considerate of their guests, and provided us with local advice on getting the most out of your experience. They even invited us to their house for a cup of tea and it was a great way to get to know more about Norway lifestyle in general, which was really nice.Overall this was an excellent experience, and if we will ever be back to Bergen (which we most probably do!), we will sure visit this apartment!Thank you Bjorke and Audhild for everything!

“Yoga retreat is the ideal and closest relaxing fjord-view 'cabin experience' to Bergen”

Reviewed 16 March 2016
for a stay in March 2016

If you are searching for peace in an idyllic place to relax then this place is for you.

Whether you are a veteran yoga enthusiast or a passing hiker, the breathtaking views of the North Sea fjord and mountains provided by ALL available rooms is truly unforgettable.

Situated shy North of Bergen on the isle of Askoy (a mere 50 minute bus journey), the yoga retreat is perfectly placed by a large supermarket (a SPAR), nearby hiking routes, a local bakery, an alpaca farm and opportunities to canoe to say the least.

Even more friendly than the people of the town of Ask are the owners of this special retreat. The hosts are exceptionally considerate of their guests, providing experienced local advice on getting the most out of your experience, respecting privacy of guests and allowing guests to indulge in some local traditions - they go above and beyond for their clients providing the ideal friendly and relaxed atmosphere.
